To  the  Classes 


The  passing  years  bring  in  their  wake 

A  line,  both  long  and  wide, 
Ot  girls  from  o'er  this  nation  dear 

To  their  Alma  Mater's  side. 
The  East,  the  West,  the  North  and  South 
Contribute  full  share  to  her  roll. 


See  here  what  schoolgirl  vanities,  displayed  in  the  mirror's  face! 
A  pleasing  reflection,  'tis  true,  with  ruffles  and  dainty  lace; 
But  the  procession  keeps  on  with  relentless  tread 

Till  the  year  rolls  by. 

And  the  time  is  nigh 
When  she  enters  the  Junior  dominion  with  dread. 


O.  little  maid,  your  curly  hair 

Will  soon  be  braided  up! 
And  gone  will  be  your  doll  and  slate 

For  things  you  deem  grow-n  up. 


The  Junior,  bent  and  dried  and  sear — 
A  sight  one's  heart  to  rend — 

Is  burdened  with  study,  a  "  P  "  her  fear. 
To  be  a  Senior  her  end. 


A  thousand  duties,  a  score  of  studies. 

The  hours  beguile  away. 
The  Freshman  year,  so  soon  begun. 

Fades  swiftly  into  that  day 
When  across  the  space  of  a  three-months'  wait 
She  sees  the  Sophomore  land. 


We  see  her.  upon  nearer  view, 
A  spirit,  yet  a  woman,  too; 
.A.  countenance  in  which  did  meet 
Sweet  records,  promises  as  sweet; 
A  creature  not  too  bright  or  good 
To  sip  from  Cupid's  immortal  food.

To  the  Junior  Class 


O,  Junior  Class,  we're  leaving  now,  0,  very  bright  your  future  leads 

New  trails  henceforth  to  follow;  To  the  door  of  the  great  Ward-Belmont; 

But  the  Seniors'  wish  remember  thou:  But  in  your  glory,  the  Senior  pleads: 

Forget  not  our  Alma  Mater.  Forget  not  our  Alma  JIater. 

In  joy,  in  pleasure,  and  everything 

(May  sorrow  be  ever  distant) 
In  all  the  change  that  life  may  bring, 

O,  forget  not  our  Alma  Mater!

AS    A  SENIOR    APPEARS 


TO    A    PRIMARY, 


TO    HER    TEACHER, 


TO      HERSELF- 


The  Sublimation  of  a  Senior    An  Explanatory  Exposition 


'^[i  /'AVING  arrived  on  the  scene  of  this  world's 
'I  L  activities,  the  small  girl  is  the  material  in 
the  rough,  the  crude  elements  out  of  which 
the  perfect  woman  is  made.  For  this  process,  years  of 
growth  and  cultivation  are  necessary,  supplemented  by 
that  careful  training  for  which  Ward  Seminary  is  so 
justly  celebrated.  As  soon  as  the  subject's  faculties 
begin  to  assert  themselves,  comes  the  knowledge  that 
this  perfection  can  be  attained  only  through  the  train- 
ing at  this  institution. 

Accordingly,  at  the  tender  age  of  seven,  when  she  is 
most  susceptible  to  learning  and  most  capable  of  receiv- 
ing mental  impressions,  she  is  planted  within  the  pri- 
marj'  walls  of  Ward,  under  the  guidance  of  that  excel- 
lent trainer.  Miss  McD.,  where  her  restless  hands  and 
feet  are  made  to  obey  her  mind  and  the  first  tiny  seeds 
of  "  reading,  writing,  and  "rithmetic  "  are  sown.  So 
carefully  are  these  first  stages  taken  that  the  firmly 
planted  bulbs  of  learning  take  root,  and  soon  the  devel- 
oping child  finds  herself  in  the  second  stage  of  gi-o%\'th. 

This  part  of  her  development  is  made  under  the  same 
general  guidance  as  the  preceding.  One  other  factor, 
however,  is  added.  She  first  begins  to  seek  light  in  the 
hotbed  of  the  school,  the  general  assembly  room^  or 
chapel,  as  it  is  sometimes  called.  There,  by  precept  and 
example,  is  she  taught  the  way  in  which  she  should  go. 


At  this  time  there  is  much  judicious  pruning  of  all  hab- 
its that  are  injurious  or  that  would  dwarf  the  culmina- 
tion of  a  perfect  specimen,  such  as  whispering  and  gig- 
gling. It  has  been  found  that  if  these  habits  remain 
unmolested  they  will  cause  trouble  later  on.  All  the 
most  noted  educators  of  this  century  agree  in  this. 

Now  comes  one  of  the  most  important  stages,  the 
Freshman  year,  which  needs  careful  watching  and  in- 
finite patience,  for  the  yet  crude  forces  seem  at  times 
obdurate  beyond  endurance.  The  formula,  with  which 
the  tender  green  sprouts,  seeking  room  in  which  to 
spread  their  increasing  tendrils,  are  sprayed,  is  a  com- 
pound of  English,  45'yr  ;  Algebra,  57t- ;  Latin,  20% ; 
History,  27%;  and  fresh  air  and  sunshine,  3%.  This 
mixture  is  applied  daily  in  rather  large,  unbroken 
doses.    Daily  also  is  fresh  dirt  added. 

The  fourth  year,  or  Sophomore  period,  is  spent 
mainly  jj^  close  proximity  to  others.  Some  of  the  ob- 
noxious weeds  observed  at  this  time  are  classed  under 
the  general  head  of  "  Boys."  Commonly  kno^^^^  divi- 
sions of  this  head  are  dancing,  clothes,  and  a  general 
tendency  to  Fifth  Avenue.  The  pruning  knife  may  be 
used  here  with  impunity,  especially  in  a  particularly 
hard  case.  The  formula  is  practically  the  same,  with 
perhaps  the  addition  or  substitution  of  10%  French. 
Algebra,  being  of  less  real  value  to  the  material  devel- 


opment  of  the  student,  is  the  substance  usually  omitted. 
Here  it  is  that  the  unfolding  petals  first  come  in  con- 
tact with  that  element  called  "  spiking."  Unless  the 
subject  is  of  hardy  fiber,  this  contact  somewhat  retards 
its  finest  growth.  This  last-named  element,  though 
rare  in  most  localities,  is  found  in  abundance  in  Ward 
Seminary,  where  it  is  seen  at  its  best.  It  is  hard  and 
has  a  peculiarly  brilliant  luster.  The  foi'emost  scentists 
of  the  day  have  found  no  way  to  combat  it. 

In  the  Junior  stage,  the  subject,  almost  ready  to 
burst  into  flower,  is  put  through  the  rigid  tests  of  the 
refinery,  intercourse  with  the  outside  world,  that  she 
may  know  just  what  is  expected  of  her  the  succeeding 
year.  Although  this  tends  to  force  the  bloom,  no  harm 
follows.  A  liberal  sprinkling  of  dictionary  words 
(Webster's  is  an  old  and  tried  variety)  curbs  the  fast- 
est development;  and  a  few  tests,  applied  monthly,  or 
oftener  if  needed,  will  insure  strict  attention  to  detail 
work.     It  is  during  this  period  that  the  nearly  ripe 


product  begins  to  recognize  undue  power  by  striving  to 
loiter  unnecessarily  on  the  gallery ;  and,  having  during 
all  these  years  suffered  the  crush  of  the  upper  class- 
men's yoke  of  superiority,  she,  in  turn,  develops  a 
slightly  patronizing  attitude  toward  undergraduates. 
This,  however,  soon  passes  away,  leaving  the  chrysalis 
to  emerge  into  the  last  stage  of  her  growth. 

0,  the  importance  and  prominence  which  is  expe- 
rienced here!  Only  those  fortunate  ones  like  herself 
can  sympathize  with  her.  What  meetings  and  discus- 
sions !  What  lofty  and  impressionable  ideals  revealed ! 
All  her  faculties  are  constantly  exercised.  She  is  the 
observed  of  all  observers.  She  is  in  the  lime  light  al- 
ways, and  invariably  shows  the  result  of  her  long  years 
of  training.  The  last  refining,  the  last  acid  test,  is 
given  with  the  infliction  of  the  "  Iris."  Those  who  sur- 
vive this  test  are  indeed  ready  to  be  plucked,  perfect 
blooms!  Thus,  and  only  thus,  is  achieved  the  Senior 
sublime. 


This  is  the  class,  noisy,  stiff-necked,  and  proud.

ESOLVED,  That  ice  cream  should  be  served 
at  11:  30  every  morning  instead  of  serving 
the  usual  chapel  exercises."     (Affirmative.) 

I.  Introduction. 

A. 

1.  Ice  cream  has  always  been  served  as 

food  and  sustenance  to  the  civilized 
races  of  mankind. 

2.  Ice    cream    consists    of    harmless    and 

nourishing    ingredients,     which    the 
genealogists  say  cause  it  to  be  one  of 
the   most   nen'e-inspiring  and  bluff- 
infusing  foods  catalogued. 
B.  Chapel  exercises  and  ice  cream  defined. 

1.  Chapel    exercises,    as    partaken    of   at 

Ward,  consist  of  a  few  hymns  gar- 
nished by  a  responsive  reading,  and  a 
spicy  talk  dished  out  by  Dr.  Landrith. 

2.  Ice  cream,  as  it  would  be  served,  would 

consist  of  one  dish,  evenly  appor- 
tioned, to  every  girl  in  chapel. 

II.  Immaterial  Issues. 

It  is  granted  by  all — 

1.  At  this  hour  pupils  need  something  to 
uplift  and  inspire  them,  and  enthuse 
them  with  the  incarnation  of  knowl- 


edge, and  should  receive  that  which 
will  benefit  them  most,  physically, 
mentally,  and  morally. 

III.  Material  Issues. 

1.  Ice  cream  is  more  beneficial  than  chapel 
exercises  in  three  ways — namely, 
physically,  mentally,  and  morally. 

IV.  Proof. 

One  of  the  famous  poets  has  said,  "  Eat,  drink, 
and  be  merry,"  and  it  is  a  very  wise 
motto  to  follow. 

A.  Physically.       1.    Ice   cream    can   be   calmly 

eaten  reposing  in  a  seat,  while  chapel 
exercises  require  gjnnnastic  perform- 
ances and  standing  straight  through 
an  entire  hymn,  thus  unnecessarily 
causing  more  weariness  to  the  already 
burdened  and  fatigued  pupils. 

B.  Mentally.     1.  The    mind    should    be    strong 

and  obtuse,  even  obdurate,  in  order  to 
cope  with  and  overcome  the  incom- 
parable and  extenuating  circum- 
stances, reaching  the  limit  which  the 
required  course  of  study  demands  of 
all  individuals  who  have  the  audacity 
to  contemplate  a  course  at  Ward. 


C.  Morally.  1.  Ice  cream,  as  it  would  be 
served,  would  always  be  cool  and  of 
even  temperature,  whereas  the  talks 
dished  out  by  Dr.  Landrith  are  not  al- 
ways cool  or  of  even  temperature. 
Thus  the  moral  rectitude  is  adminis- 
tered unto  and  aided  by  cool  ice  cream. 
V.  Conclusion. 

1.  Each  girl  will  have  her  own  appor- 
tioiied  share  of  cool,  refreshing  ice 
cream,  eaten  while  reclining  in  her 


seat;  whereas  Dr.  Landrith  occasion- 
ally favors  one  girl  with  a  large  sup- 
ply of  advice,  sometimes  heated, 
mixed  with  some  sarcasm,  and  we  all 
feel  that  too  much  of  the  delicacies  is 
injurious. 

Therefore  we,  of  the  affirmative  side,  hold,  retain, 
argue,  declare,  and  have  proven  to  you  that  "  ice  cream 
should  be  served  at  11 :  30  every  morning  instead  of 
serving  the  usual  chapel  exercises."

A  Period  in  Chapel  JVhen  Miss  Jennings  Is  Out 


♦«^-^ES,  Miss  Atchison,  you  may  change  your  seat, 

^L/    if  the  draft  is  too  strong.    Janey,  she  isn't  in 

0^  chapel.  No,  Sara,  you  may  not  use  the  tele- 
phone." 

With  these  parting  instructions.  Miss  Jennings  left 
chapel  to  join  the  Juniors,  who  were  organizing  their 
class.  It  seemed  as  if  Miss  Jennings  was  going  to  for- 
get to  repeat  her  usual  admonition,  "  Girls,  don't  get 
noisy  while  I  am  gone;  "  but  no,  she  had  hardly  reached 
the  door,  when  she  turned  to  impress  it  upon  them 
doubly  strong  by  referring  to  the  Honor  Guild  and  her 
little  book. 

For  a  moment  the  school  was  remarkably  quiet ;  then 
a  sigh  was  heard,  a  groan,  followed  by  these  words: 

"  Honeybunch,  please  go  up  to  Tony's  for  me.  I  am 
absolutely  famished.  Honestly,  I  don't  believe  I  ever 
have  been  so  long  without  something  to  eat." 

"  Not  if  I  value  my  life!  I  never  do  have  any  luck; 
and  just  as  sure  as  I  start  stealing  up  to  Tony's,  I'll 
meet  Miss  Massey  or  run  across  Mr.  Schmidt.  He  al- 
days  looks  at  you  so  hard.    No,  sir-ee!    Not  for  mine!  " 

"  O,  well,  I  guess  I'm  doomed,  unless  that  little 
Freshie  can  be  persuaded  to  go !  Cutie,  you're  the  most 
adorable  child  in  school.  Please  run  up  to  Tony's  with 
this  order.    That's  it!    You  are  an  angel !  " 

The  "  cute  little  Freshi".  "  started  out  on  her  danger- 


ous errand,  and  returned  five  minutes  later,  panting  for 
breath  and  laden  with  ten  bags  of  peanuts.  For  per- 
haps five  minutes  the  famished  bunch  of  girls  was 
quiet,  all  being  engaged  in  eating  the  salty  nuts  as  fast 
as  possible.  Then  a  rather  fat  girl  was  heard  to  re- 
mark :  "  0,  me !  I  never  can  get  enough  peanuts,  but 
really  I  must  stop  and  start  on  this  French.  Five  pages 
to  translate,  and  only  one  paragraph  finished!  What 
will  become  of  me?  " 

"  Goodness !  "  exclaimed  the  girl  across  the  aisle. 
"  You  are  lots  better  off  than  I  am.  I  translated  a  page 
last  night;  but,  to  save  my  soul,  I  can't  remember  one 
word  of  it.  I  certainly  hope  Mademoiselle  asks  me  to 
translate  on  the  first  page,  because  I  can  make  a  stag- 
ger at  that." 

"Mary,  Mary!  What  on  earth  are  you  doing?  I 
never  saw  any  one  so  perfectly  absorbed  in  a  book.  It 
must  be  the  '  Romance  of  Billy-Goat  Hill '  that  I  lent 
you  last  night.  What!  Only  Algebra?  Honestly, 
Mary,  you  will  be  a  saint  some  day.  I  worked  on  that 
last  night  an  hour  by  the  clock,  and  I  couldn't  get  a 
single  problem.  Of  course,  I  will  admit,  I  talked  a  lit- 
tle, consumed  a  bag  of  Skalowski's  caramels,  and — yes, 
I  did  read  the  joke  page  of  the  Ladies'  Home  Journal, 
too." 

"Janet,   I   am   absolutely   consumed   with   fear.     A 


Latin  text  next  period,  and  I  haven't  opened  a  book! 
Heavens,  look  at  that  clock!  0,  that  reminds  me!  I 
knew  I  had  something  to  tell  you.  I  went  "  beaning  " 
yesterday,  and  met  Mr.  Brown.  Janet,  that  man  is  too 
attractive  for  words.  '  Fascinating '  isn't  in  it.  He  is 
absolutely  hypnotizing." 

"Mr.  Brown!"  exclaimed  a  slim,  red-haired  girl. 
"  George  Brown?    My  dear,  I'm  crazy  about  him!  " 

"  George  Brown?  "  said  a  tall  Senior,  as  she  stuck 
her  head  into  the  circle.  "  My  children,  you  don't  know 
a  thing.  He  is  perfectly  dull  compared  to  that  cute  Mr. 
Hunt,  who  steals  around  here  every  night  and  talks  to 
the  girls  in  front  of  No.  —  " 

Here  the  discussion  would  have  become  heated,  had 
not  one  of  the  girls  remembered  that  she  had  just  loads 
of  work  to  do. 

"  Helen,"  she  said,  as  she  drew  away,  "  what  will 


become  of  us?  Themes  to  write  nearly  every  day,  and 
just  piles  of  other  stuff  besides!  Just  think — Miss 
Lawrence  gave  us  a  theme,  two  descriptions  to  write, 
ten  pages  of  Rhetoric,  an  outline,  and  about  fifty  de- 
scriptive words  to  bring  to  class !  O,  dear  me !  I 
haven't  gotten  a  line  of  any  of  it,  and  that  clock  is  cer- 
tainly pointing  to  ten !  Say,  Helen,  what  would  you 
leave  out?  The  theme?  I  just  can't  write,  but  I  can 
make  an  excuse  for  that ;  but  those  words — she  will  be 
sure  to  call  on  me  for  them !  I  guess  I  will  try  and  get 
those  descriptions  and  take  a  chance  on  that  Rhetoric 
work." 

At  ten  minutes  past,  everything  was  quiet;  for  all 
were  expecting  Miss  Jennings  to  come,  and  they  knew 
too  well  about  dictionary  words  to  be  behaving  uproar- 
ously  when  she  returned.

Ward. 

^■•^'I^EAR  SARA:    I  want  to  tell  you  what  a  nice 

jl  /    time  I  am  having.    Miss  Lawrence  and  Sis- 

*"  ter  Mary  met  me  at  the  station.     We  came 

straight  to  Ward.    Ward  is  the  funniest  place.     It  is 

very  dirty  here.    The  girls  eat  all  the  time.    When  they 

don't  eat,  they  say  they  are  starving.    While  Mary  says 

her  lessons,  I  stay  in  chapel.     Sometimes  I  go  with 

Mary.    In  the  middle  of  the  day  a  whole  lot  of  grown 

ladies  and  two  men  come  to  chapel  and  sit  on  the  stage. 

I  thought  the.v  wei'e  all  going  to  say  a  speech.    But  just 

one  man  says  anjiihing.     One  day  he  said  that  Ward 

and  Belmont,  or  something  like  that,  were  going  to  be 

one  school.     I  am  going  there  when  I  get  grown  up. 

Mary  says  she  don't  believe  she  likes  it.    Mary's  room- 


mate says  she  ain't  going  to  come  back.  It's  the  most 
fun  to  go  to  Mary's  Algebra  class.  You  just  oughter 
hear  Miss  Sheppe  fuss.  She  sure  can.  One  day  I  was 
sitting  in  chapel  waiting  for  Mary.  Miss  Jennings  saw 
a  girl  talk.  She  made  the  girl  take  a  great  big  book. 
She  made  her  learn  lots  of  words — about  fifty,  I  reckon. 
Every  morning  it  nearly  scares  me  to  death.  A  great 
big  old  bell  just  rings  and  rings.  You  just  have  to  get 
up.  Let's  you  and  me  come  to  Ward  when  we  get  big. 
I  ain't  going  to  have  any  old  flags  in  my  room.  The 
girls'  rooms  are  most  covered  with  them.  Well,  I  have 
to  go  now.     Good-by.  Elizabeth. 

P.S. — Don't   you   and  Billy  have  any  more  fights. 
How  is  your  sweetheart'? — E.

History  of  IVard  Seminary 


Dr.  William  E.  Ward  was  among  the 
first  men  after  the  war  to  realize  the 
need  for  schools,  and  he  decided  to  open 
a  school  himself.  After  several  years, 
Mr.  Byrd  Douglas  loaned  him  money. 
Accordingly,  the  old  Kirkiiian  residence, 
whose  rooms  were  well  adapted  to  dor- 
mitory and  study-hall  purposes,  was  secured;  and 
there,  in  1865,  Ward  Seminary  "  opened  her  doors  for 
the  promulgation  of  higher  education  for  young  women 
of  the  South."  There  were  so  many  students  enrolled 
that  in  the  following  spring  it  was  necessary  to  move, 
and  the  school  was  transferred  to  Spruce  Street,  where 
it  stands  to-day.  The  street  was  as  quiet  as  a  village 
then,  out  of  the  hurry  and  bustle,  with  no  street  cars, 
and,  it  is  said,  with  no  more  disturbing  midnight  sound 
than  the  tramp  of  the  guard  on  the  road  to  Fort  Neg- 
ley.  But  the  soldier  boys  of  yesterday  may  have  been 
just  as  fascinating  as  the  Vanderbilt  boys  of  to-day. 
There  were  thirteen  girls  in  the  first  graduating  class, 
including  Miss  Mattie  Barnard  (Mrs.  John  Gray). 


The  Bryant  residence  on  Spruce 
Street  was  a  delightful  place  for  a 
school.  Immediately  in  front  of  the 
building  was  a  large  vacant  lot.  There 
were  inpumerable  trees;  and  the  long, 
shaded  walk  is  even  now  a  refreshing 
memory  to  former  students.  However, 
Ward  Seminary  had  an  unconquerable  habit  of  out- 
growing itself — a  malady  from  which  it  has  never  re- 
covered. Soon  the  cry  was  made  for  room,  more  room ; 
and  gradually  the  surrounding  buildings  were  an- 
nexed. In  the  year  1870,  according  to  Mr.  Eaton,  of 
the  Educational  Bureau  at  Washington,  D.  C,  this 
school  ranked  third  in  the  United  States  in  numbers 
aiid  in  advantages  offered.  The  foremost  school  was 
Packer  Institute,  Brooklyn;  and  the  Convent  of  the 
Sacred  Heart,  California,  held  second  place.  The  Sem- 
inary far  surpassed  all  other  schools  in  the  number 
and  quality  of  curly  locks.  Miss  Lizzie  Fort,  who  is 
now  actively  engaged  in  Ward  alumnse  work,  gradu- 
ated at  this  time. 


tit  was  not  until  the  death  of  the  dis- 
tinguished President  in  1887  that  Ward 
Alumnse  Association  was  founded.  The 
next  April  local  graduates  held  a 
meeting,  at  which  steps  were  taken 
for  the  organization,  and  circulars  were 
sent  to  all  the  out-of-town  gradu- 
ates. The  association  started  in  with  the  sum  of  one 
hundred  dollars  in  the  treasury.  Where  they  got  it, 
we  are  unable  to  say.  The  evening  entertainment, 
which  followed  the  founding,  was  to  welcome  the  new 
graduating  class.  The  parlors  of  the  school  were  used 
for  the  occasion,  and  there  the  pretty  custom,  which  is 
still  kept  up,  of  formally  receiving  the  new  members 
was  begun.  Miss  Florence  Fite  (Mrs.  Hayden  Dodd) 
was  among  these  twenty-four.  It  was  probably  fortu- 
nate that  there  were  no  more  than  twenty-four,  for  we 
fail  to  see  how  the  stage  could  have  held  any  more  of 
the  voluminous  costumes  then  worn. 


Dr.  Ward's  successors  were  Mr.  J. 
T.  Hancock  and  then  Rev.  E.  H.  Charles, 
D.D.  Mrs.  Mary  H.  Robertson  was 
Principal  of  the  Home  Department  dur- 
ing all  three  administrations.  At  Christ- 
mas of  1892,  Dr.  John  Diell  Blanton, 
whose  name  has  been  to  a  later  Ward 
Seminary  what  Dr.  Ward's  name  was  to  the  former, 
and  a  part  of  whose  work  in  the  institution  has  been 
to  keep  alive  in  the  hearts  of  the  alumnse  members  the 
deep-seated  loyalty  they  cherish  for  the  founder,  be- 
came President  of  the  school.  Just  one  year  later  Miss 
Bell  Jennings  assumed  control  of  the  chapel,  in  which 
office  she  has  been  all  that  could  be  desired.  It  was  al- 
most ten  years  after  the  first  meeting  that  the  reorgan- 
ization of  the  Alumnse  Association  took  place,  when 
"  Ward  Seminary  Day  "  was  observed  at  the  Tennes- 
see Centennial  Exposition.  Many,  many  gold-and- 
white  badges  were  scattered  through  the  audience. 
Miss  Lelia  Stetson  (Mrs.  Roger  Smith)  graduated  the 
year  Dr.  Blanton  began  his  administration. 


During  the  lifetime  of  the  first  Presi- 
dent the  school  enjoyed  holidays  spent  in 
the  woods  on  his  birthdays.  When  Dr. 
Blanton  arrived,  he  did  not  give  the 
same  days  as  holidays ;  but  he  gave 
them,  nevertheless.  Picnics  at  Craggie 
Hope  and  in  the  city  parks  were  not  un- 
usual. On  the  other  hand,  essays  were  not  required  of 
the  Seniors  as  previously.  One  record  says  of  an  early 
class :  "  Commencement  continued  for  three  days,  un- 
til each  of  the  forty-seven  girls  of  the  class  had  read 
an  essay  prepared  especially  for  the  occasion."  Per- 
haps Dr.  Blanton  did  not  think  the  Seniors  could 
write  essays  any  more,  or  perhaps  he  felt  that  their 
friends  could  no  longer  stay  awake  for  three  days.  At 
this  time  was  added  a  School  of  Expression,  a  School 
of  Physical  Culture,  and  a  Home  Economics  Depart- 
ment. The  accompanying  picture  is  Miss  Nell  Fall 
(Mrs.  Avery  Handly),  who  is  now  president  of  the 
Alumnse  Association. 


During  the  last  ten  years  Ward  Semi- 
nary has  by  no  means  stood  still.  Ward 
Conservatory,  with  its  numbers  of  voice, 
violin,  and  piano  pupils,  has  been  added 
on  one  side.  Farther  out,  the  old  Mur- 
phy Place,  with  its  secret  passages  and 
ghosts,  was  purchased,  with  the  in- 
tention of  moving  the  school  out.  There  has  been  not 
enough  room  and  too  much  noise  and  confusion  on 
Spruce  Street.  Ward  Place  has  been  used  for  a  dormi- 
tory for  several  years,  the  strongest  and  bravest  girls 
venturing  out.  Dr.  Ira  Landrith  became  President  of 
the  institution  last  September;  Dr.  Blanton,  Vice  Presi- 
dent and  President  of  the  Faculty.  However,  the 
above-mentioned  plan  has  been  changed,  or,  rather, 
new  plans  have  been  formed,  as  our  readers  know. 
Therefore  this  Class  of  1913,  these  thirty-seven  girls, 
will  be  the  last  class — the  last  Seniors — to  graduate 
from  Ward  Seminary.  Miss  Lillian  Dobson  is  presi- 
dent of  this  class.

The  bis 


■^im^  HE  very  name,  "  iris,"  brings  to  our  minds 
L  ^S  thoughts  of  beauty  and  gladness.  Before  Na- 
^^"^  ture  spreads  her  green  carpet  beneath  the 
leafless  trees,  the  little  iris  springs  up,  bringing  with 
it  beauty  and  fragrance.  This  little  herald  comes  to 
announce  to  us,  after  months  of  wind  and  snow,  the 
approach  of  bright  and  sunshiny  days ;  but  its  name- 
sake, "  The  Iris,"  is  not  a  herald.  Its  voice  will,  in 
after  years,  speak  to  us  from  its  musty  leaves  and  re- 
mind us  of  all  the  pleasure  and  happiness  that  we,  as 
pupils  of  Ward  Seminary,  but  more  especially  as  the 
Class  of  1913,  enjoyed  at  Ward.

The  Great  Revolution 


■^i^^  HE  great  student  revolution  was  on ! 
^■^  With  white,  strained  faces,  the  Faculty  sat 
huddled  together,  awaiting  the  next  dread 
summons  before  the  august  Council  of  Thirteen.  Oc- 
casionally there  penetrated  from  the  chapel,  where  the 
students  were  gathered,  a  stormy  clamor,  demanding 
that  this  teacher  or  that  teacher  be  placed  next  on  trial 
for  high  crimes  and  misdemeanors. 

"  I  don't  see  why  we  can't  have  'em  all  in  at  once  and 
just  bunch  'em,"  penetrated  one  shrill,  vicious  voice. 
"  What's  the  use  of  wasting  so  much  time?  I've  got  a 
date  to  go  '  beaning  '  at  four  o'clock." 

"  Me,  too !  "  cried  a  member  of  the  Subf reshman 
Grammar  Class.  "  I  got  to  go  to  a  matinee  of  '  Busy 
Izzy '  at  the  Bijou;  and,  believe  me,  I  think  we  ought 
to  '  make  hay  while  the  sun  shines.'  " 

"  Ain't  it  the  truth!  "  came  a  sjTnpathetic  murmur. 

"  Well,  then,"  said  another,  "  why  not  just  have 
them  all  in  and  put  them  through  the  combined  soror- 
ity initiations  ?  " 

The  listening  teachers  shuddered. 

At  that  moment  the  door  opened. 

"  Miss  Scruggs !  "  Janie's  voice  summoned. 

A  murmur  of  compassion  vibrated  the  group  as,  tot- 
teringly,  the  beautiful  young  literature  teacher  rose 
to  her  feet. 


"  Yes,"  she  whispered,  with  dry  lips. 

"  They  want  you  next,"  said  the  messenger. 

One  of  the  Faculty  whispered  to  another ;  "  I  knew 
they  would  have  it  out  on  her  among  the  very  first.  It's 
some  of  those  Rhetoric  pupils." 

Again  the  door  closed;  again  the  awful  silence,  the 
terror-stricken  straining  to  hear,  the  gloom,  lightened 
only  by  one  eight-candle,  low-power  electric  lamp. 

Out  of  the  clamorous  shadows  came  the  voice  of  Miss 
Jennings:  "  They  are  bad — just  plain  bad!  There's  no 
other  word  for  it !  " 

There  was  a  grunt  behind  her. 

"  Nonsense!  "  said  Miss  Ross.  "  It's  just  a  part  of 
the  degenerate  up-side-down-ness  of  these  modem 
times.    Now  in  the  days  of  Pericles —  " 

Miss  McDonald  made  a  gesture  with  her  hands. 
"  Well,"  she  began,  with  decision,  "  nobody's  asked  my 
opinion,  but —  " 

"  It  seems  to  me,"  said  Dr.  Blanton,  pausing  in  his 
pacing  up  and  dovm  the  floor,  "  that,  with  so  many 
women  here,  some  successful  resistance  might  be  made. 
What  can  four  or  five  poor,  helpless  men  do  ?  I  remem- 
ber that  back  in  the  days  when  men  were  supreme  in 
political  authority  and  were  the  stronger  vessels,  it 
would  have  been  deemed  incredible  that  such  a  calam- 
ity could  happen  in  our  fair  land —  " 


He  stopped,  chilled  to  silence  by  the  cold,  resentful 
glances  leveled  at  him.  From  outside  came  the  roar  of 
a  passing  electric  car,  its  gong  clangorously  opening  a 
passage  as  the  motorwoman  banged  her  heel.  It 
stopped  an  instant,  and  they  could  hear  distinctly  the 
soft,  polite  voice  of  the  lady  conductor  urging  a  gen- 
tleman not  to  try  to  get  off  until  she  could  precede  and 
assist  him.  Then  came  the  "  honk  "  of  an  automobile, 
and  through  the  blinds  drifted  the  courteous  tones  of 
the  chauffeur  as  she  solicitously  pleaded  with  a  gen- 
tleman to  go  on  across  and  not  to  be  afraid;  that  she 
would  not  move  the  car  an  inch  further  until  he  was 
safely  upon  the  opposite  sidewalk. 

The  listening  Faculty  glared  at  Dr.  Blanton. 

"And  you  would  have  the  human  race  go  back  to  the 
darkness  of  old  conditions?"  asked  one,  frostily;  and 
the  Doctor,  the  politest  and  most  kindly  courteous  man 
in  the  world,  eagerly  solicited  pardon  for  his  unfortu- 
nate recurrence  to  bygone  and  antiquated  social  condi- 
tions. 

"All  the  same,"  came  the  quiet,  deep  voice  of  Dr. 
Landrith,  "  if  I  were  just  outside  there  and  had  a  good 
horse  under  me,  I  wouldn't  be  afraid  of  any  revolution- 
ary body,  even  boarding-school  girls." 

"  Voire  cheval,"  began  Miss  Herring,  then  whispered 
an  inquiry  to  Mademoiselle  Cuendet :  "  Voulez-vous 
give  me  the  word  for —  " 

"Je  ne  vous  comprends  pas,"  said  the  young  French- 
woman, with  a  shrug;  "  je  ne  parle  pas  Anglais." 

The  door  opened. 

"  Next!  "  said  Janie.    "  Miss  McDuffie!  " 

With  a  low,  heartrending  cry,  the  little  gray  lady 
staggered  to  the  threshold. 


"  Tell  me,  Janie,"  she  gasped,  pleadingly.  "  What 
about  Miss  Scruggs?  Did  they — did  they — "  She 
could  not  speak  further. 

The  stem-visaged  monitor  hesitated. 

"  I  can't  tell  you  anything.  Miss  McDuffie,"  she  said, 
"  for  they'll  catch  up  with  me." 

"Just  tell  me  this,"  gasped  the  other:  "  is  she  alive?  " 

Janie  yielded  a  little  before  the  eager,  burning  eyes. 
The  rest  listened  with  frightened  apprehension. 

"  She's  alive  all  right,"  said  Janie,  "  but —  " 

Her  kind  face  looked  sjinpathetically  at  the  little  sea 
of  white  faces.  She  heaved  a  deep  breath;  then,  al- 
most closing  the  door,  she  whispered :  "  But  she's  got 
to  read  Chaucer's  '  Canterbury  Tales,'  Spenser's 
'  Faerie  Queen,'  and  '  Harold  the  Last  of  the  Saxon 
Kings  '  between  now  and  to-morrow  morning." 

There  was  silence  an  instant.  The  little  group,  with 
senses  stunned,  was  unable  to  voice  its  terror  and  hor- 
ror at  this  last  intelligence.  Then  there  was  a  low, 
soft  thud  as  Miss  Morrison  fell  senseless  from  her 
chair. 

In  a  moment  Mrs.  Blanton  had  raised  her  head. 
"  Water,"  she  said  to  Janie,  "  a  glass  of  water!  " 

Janie  shook  her  head.  "  I'm  sorry,  Mrs.  Blanton," 
she  said,  "  but  you  know  water  for  drinking  purposes  is 
no  longer  permitted  by  the  council.  I  can  get  her  some 
Coca-Cola  or  some  soda  pop,  but  that's  all.  I  believe, 
though,  that  John  is  making  a  couple  of  barrels  of  choc- 
olate nut  sundffi,  and  perhaps  that —  " 

"Never  mind,"  said  Miss  Morrison,  faintly;  "I'm 
better  now." 

"  Perhaps,"  said  Mr.  Neth,  gallantly,  "  a  little  fresh 
air  now —  " 


He  moved  resolutely  toward  one  of  the  windows,  but 
was  halted  by  a  general  murmur  of  alarm. 

"  Have  you  forgotten,"  said  Miss  Tennant,  sharply, 
"  that  teachers  are  not  allowed  to  go  to  the  windows?  " 

"  Next!  "  came  from  the  doorway.    "  Miss  Smaill!  " 

The  Expression  teacher  crossed  the  floor,  and  (low 
be  it  spoken,  girls!)  she  was  very  much  out  of  poise. 
She  glanced  about  her,  then  elevated  her  chest  and 
took  a  deep  breath.  An  instant  later  she  had  disap- 
peared through  the  dread  portal. 

"  0-0-0 !"  moaned  Miss  Sheppe,  as  her  body  shook 
with  sobs.  "  Why — 0,  why? — did  I  give  so  many  '  P's  " 
in  grading?  If  I  come  out  of  this  alive,  never,  never 
will  I  give  another!  " 

"  You  should  have  thought  of  that  before,"  said  Miss 
Massey,  sternly.  "As  for  me,  this  has  been  a  lesson, 
and  I'll  never  again  mark  any  poor  girl  anjrthing  but 
'  E.'  " 

Again  the  door  opened,  and  then  again  and  again. 
At  last  every  member  of  the  Faculty  had  been  sum- 
moned before  the  dread  council — all,  save  one. 

Mrs.  Blanton  was  left  alone ! 

In  the  presence  of  the  others  she  had  kept  up  a 
brave,  stiff  upper  lip,  inspiring  all  by  her  example  of 
smiling  courage.  Now,  however,  she  became  a  prey  to 
her  fears.  With  dread  she  recalled  the  permissions  she 
had  refused  to  grant,  the  reprimands  for  offenses 
against  school  rules.  She  recalled  with  a  chill  of  de- 
spair that  the  council  before  which  she  was  to  appear 
was  made  up  almost  entirely  of  students  who  had  at 
some  time  been  required  to  keep  study  hall  or  had  been 
chided  for  not  wearing  their  uniforms  when  appearing 
in  public. 

Shudderingly  she  listened  as  footsteps  sounded  in 


the  hall  without.  Then  there  were  riiore  footsteps. 
Now  they  seemed  to  swell  into  the  tramp  of  an  army. 
Above  this  noise  arose  the  sound  of  chattering  voices 
and  merry  laughter. 

She  cowered  into  a  corner.  "  They  are  coming  for 
me  en  masse.'  "  she  whispered.  "  For  what?  "  Then 
a  dreadful  conjecture  struck  through  her  tortured 
brain.  "  0,  no,"  she  whispered.  "  They  coidd  not  do 
that;  they  would  not  be  so  heartlessly  cruel!  " 

For  of  a  sudden,  like  a  bolt  out  of  the  blue,  the  awful 
thought  had  come  to  her  that  they  were  going  to  make 
her  wear  one  of  the  new  spring  uniform  hats. 

"Anything  but  that,"  gasped  the  poor  lady — "  any- 
thing! "  She  wrung  her  hands.  "  I  just  eo!(W  not  bear 
that!  I'll  agree  to  anything  else — compromise  on  any- 
thing !  " 

The  noise  of  footsteps  swelled  louder.  Meeting  this 
came  a  stream  of  girlish  voices  from  the  chapel. 

"0,  it's  the  Vanderbilt  boys  coming  to  tea!"  she 
heard.    "  0,  how  perfectly  lovely!  " 

Then,  as  she  all  but  swooned,  a  hand  fell  upon  her 
shoulder  and  shook  vigorously.  She  knew  that  her 
hour  had  come. 

The  hand  was  still  shaking,  but  it  was  against  my 
own  shoulder. 

"  Here,  wake  up,  you  silly!  "  I  heard  my  roommate 
say.  "  If  you  want  any  brealcfast,  you'll  have  to  hurry. 
Don't  you  hear  the  girls  going  downstairs?  " 

I  sat  up,  rubbing  my  eyes. 

"  You  must  have  been  dreaming,"  said  my  roornmate, 
laughing. 

I  smiled  feebly.    It  seemed  likely  that  I  had.

Everyday  Life 


SCENE  I.     Twelve  girls  on  a  corner  of  the  gallery 
engaged  in  an  animated  discussion.     Miss  Jen- 
nings enters,  and  a  hushed  expectancy  falls  over 
the  gay  crowd. 

Miss  Jennings:  "  Well,  girls,  is  this  a  social  of 
some  kind,  or  merely  an  indignation  meeting?  None 
of  you  had  permission  from  me  to  loiter,  and  I  don't 
understand  this  at  all.     Go  right  to  the  chapel !  " 

Scene  II.  The  Chapel.  Twelve  girls  bent  industri- 
ously over  their  books. 

Miss  J.  (from  her  seat  on  the  platform)  :  "  Kath- 
lene,  come  to  me!  " 

Kathlene  advances,  with  very  evident  reluctance,  to 
the  platform,  and,  pulling  up  a  chair,  seats  herself  at 
Miss  J.'s  side. 

Miss  J. :  "  Well,  Kathlene,  can  you  explain  your  con- 
duct?   No,  not  a  H'orc/.'    Your  conduct  explains  itself !  " 

Kathlene  :  "  But,  Miss  Jennings —  " 

Miss  J. :  "  That  will  do.  I  said  '  not  a  word.'  Take 
twenty  dictionary  words,  and  be  glad  to  escape  so 
lightly.  You  may  go.  No,  I've  changed  my  mind. 
Take  forty  words,  for  this  is  the  second  time  you  have 
misbehaved  this  week." 

Kathlene  sighs,  but  realizes  that  '  such  is  life  '  in 
Ward  Seminary. 


Miss  J.:  "  Mary,  come  here!  I  didn't  think  this  of 
you,  Mary;  for  I've  always  looked  upon  you  as  one  of 
my  best  girls.  I'm  finding  out  about  quite  a  few  of 
you  girls.  None  of  you  have  any  moral  character  left, 
and  I'm  losing  all  my  respect  for  you.  Have  j'ou  any- 
thing to  say?  " 

Mary  (very  downcast  and  penitent)  :  "  Miss  Jen- 
nings, I  just  went  to  wash  my  hands,  and  had  to  wait 
for  several  other  girls  to  finish." 

Miss  J. :  "A  very  poor  excuse!  Never  let  this  occur 
again !  You  may  go  to  your  seat  and  sit  there  for  the 
rest  of  the  period." 

Mary  retires. 

Miss  J.  (addressing  the  whole  school)  :  "  Young  la- 
dies, I  am  getting  up  a  dictionary  class  for  the  benefit 
of  some  of  the  girls ;  and  unless  you  want  to  join  it,  you 
had  better  get  down  to  good,  steady  work.  Now,  re- 
member, girls,  you  who  are  on  the  Self-Regulating 
Guild,  your  deportment  counts  a  great  deal,  and  I 
wouldn't  like  to  see  you  taken  off  the  roll.  I  have  a  list 
of  some  girls  of  whom  I  am  very  doubtful,  and  unless 
their  behavior  shows  a  marked  improvement — well,  I 
won't  say  what  will  happen.  You  know,  girls,  there 
can  be  subtraction  as  well  as  addition."

A  Visit  to  the  Man  in  the  Moon 


■^m^  HE  divan  on  which  I  was  lying  was  very  com- 
\^^  fortable  and  a  favorite  place  of  mine,  where 
^^"^  I  often  went  to  write  themes.  I  was  looking 
through  the  window,  and  my  old  friend,  the  moon,  was 
doing  his  best  to  make  fairyland  of  earth.  While  I 
looked  (would  you  believe  it?),  the  man  in  the  moon 
winked  at  me.  I  never  knew  him  to  flirt  before,  al- 
though I  had  given  him  many  opportunities.  He  next 
smiled  and  said:  "  Why  don't  you  come  up?  " 

"  I  wish  I  could,"  I  said. 

Just  then  the  softest  white  cloud  imaginable  floated 
to  my  window.  I  lighted  on  its  back,  and  before  you 
could  say  "Jack  Robinson,"  I  was  knocking  at  the  cas- 
tle door  of  Mr.  Moon. 

At  first  he  teased  me  and  would  not  open  the  door. 
I  was  almost  ready  to  cry,  when  two  little  moonbeams, 
with  silver  caps,  knee  trousers,  and  flowing  capes, 
threw  back  two  huge,  shining  doors  set  with  stars. 
"Welcome  to  his  royal  palace!"  sounded  from  hun- 
dreds of  voices. 

There,  in  truth,  was  he  whom  I  had  so  long  admired 
at  a  distance.  Slowly  he  descended  the  steps  of  his 
throne  room,  and  the  little  page  moonbeams  parted 
right  and  left,  bowing  before  him.  His  trailing,  kingly 
robes  were  held  by  two  of  the  brightest.     To  a  third 


he  gave  his  crown,  and  offered  me  his  arm  to  conduct 
me  in  person  through  this  wonderful  moon  castle.  In 
the  distance  a  chime  of  silver  bells  rang  out. 

"  What  can  that  be,  Mr.  Moon?  " 

"  Why,  school,  of  course.  If  you  care,  come  to  our 
seminary  and  see  the  girls  at  work." 

My  wondering  eyes  grew  larger  when  the  door 
opened  on  this  moon  chapel.  The  first  classes  were  be- 
ing called.  Miss  Manier  arose,  with  much  dignity,  say- 
ing :  "  Before  passing  to  the  recitation  rooms,  I  wish 
Miss  Jennings  and  Miss  Lawrence  to  report  to  my  desk 
at  once.  I  understand  they  have  been  to  Venus'  bakery 
and  bought  angel  food  and  divinity  fudge  without 
Mars'  permission.  The  day  pupils  will  please  not  go 
to  the  corner  for  the  boarders."  She  then  continued : 
"A  lecture  will  be  given  in  chapel  to-morrow  by  Miss 
Henrietta  Lindsley,  which  all  must  attend." 

After  this,  Miss  Manier  dismissed  classes,  calling 
Rows  1,  2,  3,  etc.,  striking  her  little  silver  bell  as  the 
students  arose. 

We  went  to  the  Music  room.  Miss  Johnson  was  do- 
ing her  best  to  bring  Dr.  Landrith's  tenor  to  harmonize 
with  Dr.  Blanton's  deep  bass.  Miss  Ross'  high  soprano 
and  Miss  Scruggs'  contralto  were  in  entirely  diff'erent 
keys. 


Miss  Johnson  exclaimed :  "  Now,  young  ladies  and 
gentlemen,  this  inattention  and  indifference  is  so  dis- 
couraging that  we  will  give  up  this  quartet  for  com- 
mencement, and  you  must  report  to  Miss  Manier  un- 
less you  greatly  improve." 

Feeling  sorry  for  the  culprits,  we  quietly  slipped  into 
Miss  Harriet  Overton's  room. 

"  To-morrow  is  theme  day,"  said  Miss  Overton. 
"  Miss  Thach  will  have  for  her  subject  '  The  Telephone 
System  in  Ancient  Rome : '  Miss  Sheppe,  '  The  Fourth 
Dimension ; '  Miss  McDuffie,  '  Woman  Franchise.'  " 


In  another  room  Miss  Martha  Lindsey  had  her  Eng- 
lish class. 

"  Mademoiselle  Sansot  and  Fraulein  Reincken,"  said 
Miss  Lindsey.  "  You  know  we  tie  a  horse  to  a  tree  to 
make  him  fast,  and  then  you  also  beat  him  to  make  him 
go  fast.  A  board  is  a  body  of  men  who  rule,  and  from 
a  board  we  can  also  make  a  rule." 

"  0,  I  was  enjoying  seeing  my  former  taskmasters 
pulling  up  the  same  hills  that  I  had  climbed.  I  laughed 
aloud,  jumped — and  there  was  the  moon  smiling  down 
at  me.  Margaret  E.  Morrow  ('15). 


After  Pope 


■  "J^  T  was  a  dire  calamity,  disastrous,  and  almost  fa- 
ll tal  to  the  one  concerned.  She  had  left  them 
right  there  on  the  dresser;  but  now  they  were 
gone,  and  no  amount  of  scolding  would  bring  them 
back.  Ten  minutes  until  tea!  What  would  she  do? 
She  had  looked  for  them  in  every  nook  and  corner  of 
the  room,  but  her  search  had  been  fruitless. 

The  tea  bell  now  has  rung.  She  is  desperate,  raging 
like  an  infuriated  tigress;  but  the  guilty  persons  will 
not  appease  her  by  bringing  forth  the  hidden  treasures. 
She  swears  vengeance,  and  falls  exhausted  on  her  bed, 
while  the  other  girls  trip  gayly  down  the  steps  to  the 
dining  room. 

Soon  there  comes  a  light  tap  at  the  door,  and  a  sweet 
voice  says,  very  tenderly:  '*  Well,  Elizabeth,  why  were 
you  not  down  to  tea?  " 

"  0,  Mrs.  Blanton,"  she  chokingly  sobs,  "  some  one 
has  hidden  my  switches !  " 

Thus  was  published  at  Ward  "  The  Rape  of  the 
Locks,"  but  the  culprits  were  never  discovered. 

Ora  Smith  ('14). 


Society  Column 


^^^K  N  event  of  great  interest  to  the  Athens  of  the 
_A\  South  is  the  marriage  of  Ward  and  Bel- 
mont, which  will  unite  two  Nashville  fami- 
lies famous  in  the  educational  world.  When  the  ap- 
proaching marriage  was  rumored,  it  was  received  with 
no  less  surprise  than  ancient  Verona  felt  at  the  love  of 
a  Montague  for  a  Capulet.  There  has  been  for  a  long 
time  great  rivalry  between  the  two  houses;  but  now 
the  followers  of  the  Bro^\^l  and  the  friends  of  the  White 
and  Gold  realize  that  the  marriage  will  bring  increased 
prosperity  to  both  parties,  and  that  when  the  minister 
says,  "  Has  any  one  here  a  just  reason  that  this  mar- 
riage should  not  take  place?  "  no  voice  will  be  raised  in 
protest. 

The  marriage  will  take  place  in  the  early  fall.  Al- 
though the  details  are  not  known,  the  following  items 
are  gleaned :  The  bride's  dress  will  be  a  creation  in 
white  and  gold,  with  her  bouquet  of  iris,  while  the 
groom  will  wear  brown.  Dr.  Ira  Landrith  will  per- 
form the  ceremony,  and  Dr.  J.  D.  Blanton  will  give  the 
bride  away.  The  maid  of  honor  will  be  one  who  has 
been  the  belle  of  Ward  for  some  time.  Miss  Jennings. 


The  first  and  second  bridesmaids  will  be  Miss  Hood 
and  Miss  Heron,  and  petite  Misses  Thach  and  Morrison 
will  be  the  flower  girls.  Beautiful  music  will  be  a  fea- 
ture of  the  occasion,  and  a  chorus  will  be  led  by  Mr. 
Charles  Washburn;  while  Herr  Fritz  Schmitz,  a  very 
famous  violinist  of  Nashville,  will  play  a  solo. 

The  bride  to  be,  a  very  popular  Southerner,  has  al- 
read}'  received  many  congratulations  and  gifts  from  all 
parts  of  the  country.  Among  the  most  interesting  and 
beautiful  of  the  gifts  is  the  magnificent  estate  of  Bel- 
mont, where  the  young  couple  will  make  their  future 
home.  It  was  given  by  the  business  associates  of  her 
father.  The  buildings  are  reproductions  of  an  Italian 
villa,  with  a  park  beautified  by  a  lake,  fountains,  and 
shrubbery.  Even  now  the  buildings  are  being  en- 
larged, remodeled,  and  perfected,  with  every  modem 
comfort  and  convenience  installed.  A  splendid  corps  of 
caretakers  will  be  selected  to  aid  in  the  care  and  direc- 
tion of  the  large  estate.  The  bride  and  groom's  most 
ardent  wish  is  that  their  old  friends,  as  well  as  many 
new  ones,  will  visit  them  during  the  coming  winter.

Sociological  Philosophic  Association  for  the  Discussion  of 
Philanthropic  Topics 


-^fc»'  HIS  club  was  founded  in  the  year  nineteen  thir- 
^^  teen,  under  the  auspices  of  the  Right  Hon- 
^^"^  orable  John  Diell  Blanton.  The  primary  pur- 
pose of  this  august  association  is  as  aforesaid  in  the 
seaquidepal  title.  This  association  of  "  tantamount 
rights  for  ladies  "  has  been  the  occasion  of  much  au- 
maturgical  discussion  among  the  zetetic  nonbelonging 
members  of  the  Guild.  Although  mere  j'ounkers  of 
this  ultramundane  Seminary,  these  vicarious  members 
have  very  intellectual  physiognomies  and  quizzical  fac- 
ulties of  brain  matter. 


Professor  Anna  Treadwell  Blanton,  bearing  the  in- 
signia of  "  General,"  is  truly  illustrated  above  as  re- 
lieving the  fence  of  Miss  Jane  Eve  Buckner,  Miss  Kate 
Savage,  and  Miss  Mary  Mitchell  Clay  by  debates  and 
more  violent  modes  of  persuasion,  assisted  by  Miss 
Frances  Clay.  Miss  Elizabeth  Cushman  and  Miss 
Elizabeth  Crenshavi'  are  vjvidly  portrayed  on  the  oppo- 
site side  of  the  fence,  with  their  negative  ideas  of  no 
votes  for  women.

Mrs,  G.  p.  Steere 

Where  the  Southern  sunlight  glistens 

On  the  sweet  magnolia  trees, 
And  many  a  snowy  chalice 

Flings  its  fragrance  to  the  breeze. 

Across  the  fields  of  cotton,  We're  longing,  not  for  splendor. 

With  their  blooms  of  pink  and  white.  Nor  for  mansion's  gilded  dome; 

We  can  hear  the  sweet  birds  singing  But  for  sun-kissed  Louisiana, 

In  the  gently  fading  light.  For  the  State  we  call  our  home.

Mars,  the  Roman  god  of  war,  called  "Ares  "  by  the 
Greeks  and  "  Blanton  "  in  the  modern  English  tongue. 
He  was  a  fierce  and  terrible  god,  who  delighted  in  the 
rush  and  noise  of  battle,  and  from  him  no  kindnesses 
were  ever  expected.  Mars  was  greatly  feared,  and 
human  sacrifices  were  sometimes  offered  on  his  altar. 


Juno,  called  "  Hera  "  by  the  Greeks  and  "Jennings  " 
by  the  English,  was  queen  of  the  gods.  The  life  of  the 
queen  was  not  represented  by  poets  as  an  exceedingly 
happy  one,  for  she  had  many  trials  to  vex  her.  Much 
of  her  time  was  of  necessity  spent  in  devising  punish- 
ments for  mortal  beings.  The  goose,  the  cuckoo,  and 
the  peacock  were  sacred  to  her.

Ward  Examinations  Are  Over.      'But  Are  the  Girls  Over? 

^Perfectly  Good  Men  Put  in  Appearance  at  the  Cotillion  Club  Dance.     H^edding 
Invitations  Are  Very,  Very  Interesting 


J'Vard  Notes — Selected  from  the    Tennessean  and  American 


Saturday  night  was  one  Big  Night — capital 
B.  The  Cotillion  Club  had  a  regular,  really, 
truly  dance,  with  an  orchestra,  shaded  lighte, 
frappe,  and  everything,  except  men.  But 
the  girls  made  perfectly  good  men  in  their 
stiil  shirts,  high  collars,  and  mustaches. 
And  no  one  would  ever  have  guessed  (thanks 
to  the  very  efficient  Decoration  Committee) 
that  the  big  room,  softly  lighted,  softly 
scented,  softly  musical,  was  nothing  in  the 
world  but  the  old  gym.  masquerading.  Sev- 
eral guests  from  the  outside  world  added  to 
the  pleasure  and  helped  to  make  this  one  of 
the  events  of  the  year.  We're  hoping  that 
the  pictures  Mr.  Wiles  took  will  be  good. 

Query:  How  do  men  carry  their  pumps 
wQen  they  are  on  their  way  to  dances?  One 
masculine  (?)  member  of  the  Cotillion  Club 
strolled  in  with  her  pumps  in  a  most  gor- 
geous pink  satin  slipper  bag;  another  carried 
hers  carefully  wrapped  in  the  comic  section 
of  a  Sunday  Tennessean  and  American;  while 
a  third,  disdaining  these  feminine  tactics,  ar- 
rived with  the  black  satin  toes  of  her  slip- 
pers sticking  out  of  her  coat  pocket. 

The  names  of  the  girls  on  the  Self-Govern- 
ment  Guild  have  been  read  out,  announced, 
and  posted.  They  are  supposed  to  be  the 
cream  of  the  entire  school  body.  We,  edi- 
torially speaking  (Ward  Place),  have  never 
particularly  cared  for  the  name  "Guild;" 
but,  perhaps,  the  fortunate  few  in  it  will 
be  so  superlatively  all  that  they  are  supposed 


to    be    that    the    name    will    be — well,    sub- 
merged. 

The  Ryman  Auditorium  was  certainly 
dressed  up  in  its  best  bib  and  tucker  for  the 
festivities  Monday.  The  Governor  of  Ten- 
nessee was  properly  inaugurated,  for  the 
Ward  girls  were  among  those  present  to  see 
it  well  done.  They  formed  a  long  line,  if 
not  an  extraordinarily  impressive  one  be- 
cause of  its  motley  array.  There  were  girls 
in  uniforms  and  girls  in  sweaters:  there 
-were  girls  in  fur  coats  and  girls  in  slickers; 
there  were  day  pupils  and  boarders.  By  the 
way,  what  is  the  correct  inaugural  costume? 

Exams,  are  over.  Whether  we  are  over  or 
not  remains  to  be  seen.  At  any  rate,  we 
are  beginning  to  breathe  regularly  again. 
Exams,  are  enough  to  knock  the  breath  out 
of  the  best  athlete.  We've  decided  they  are 
a  peculiar  and  painful  form  of  punishment 
that  ought  to  have  been  abolished  along  with 
the  pillory  and  torture  racks. 

The  circus  was  not  "  pulled  off  "  in  the  big 
tent  as  announced  last  Tuesday,  for  the  per- 
fectly good  reason  that  the  weather  man 
ivouhl  let  it  rain.  However,  it  happened  in 
Study  Hall,  and  was  truly  exciting,  with 
clowns,  juvenile  ballet  dancers,  tight-rope 
walkers,  a  performing  monkey  that  stood 
on  her — no,  its — head,  and  a  giraffe,  a  char- 
iot race,  a  balloon  ascension,  a  band,  peanuts 
and  pink  lemonade,  and  "  then  some."  At 
last  came  the  climax — a  take  off  on  the  mem- 


bers of  the  faculty.  They  were  all  so  well 
done  that  nobody  was  unrecognized.  If  the 
teachers  didn't  care  to  see  themselves  as 
others  saw  them,  they  were  too  polite  to 
say  so. 

Permission — and  tickets — to  see  "  The 
Trail  of  the  LiOnesome  Pine "  have  been 
given  to  all  Ward  girls  soliciting  such  per- 
mission and  such  tickets.  But,  as  we  aren't 
going  until  Thursday  night,  and  as  the 
Tennessean  and  American  insists  on  having 
"  Notes "  in  by  Thursday  noon,  we  really 
cannot  say,  "What  a  good  time  we  had!" 
However,  on  the  strength  of  the  book  and  of 
our  pocketbook,  we  have  invested  in  the 
very  same  kind  of  lucky  stones  that  June 
has.  They  are  fascinating  things  to  ■wear 
around   one's  neck. 

Riley  Jarrett.  who  has  been  the  friend  and 
foe  (but  more  often  the  friend)  of  every 
Ward  girl  for  the  past  twenty-five  years,  in 
the  capacity  of  house  boy,  butler,  package 
carrier,  and  ringer  of  rising  bells,  has  left 
to  take  a  job  with  the  Y.  W.  C.  A. 

Miss  Gattinger  took  some  of  the  girls  of 
her  art  class  to  a  large  printing  ofSce  a  few 
days  ago  to  be  instructed  in  book  binding, 
etc.  Calling  cards,  announcement  cards, 
invitation  cards,  etc.,  were  duly  inspected; 
but  when  the  wedding  invitations  were 
brought  out,  they  were  enthusiastically  in- 
spected. Now  the  rest  of  the  art  class  wants 
to  go  to  that  printing  company.

Appreciation  and  Anticipation 


W 


kARD  SEMINARY  was  not  born  to  die. 

Just  when  niiser  Mars  had  sated  his  greed 
for  both  Southern  blood  and  treasure,  and 
when,  the  flower  of  her  manhood  slain,  the  South  had 
not  where  to  train  the  flower  of  her  young  maidenhood, 
Ward  Seminary  for  Young  Ladies  was  conceived  and 
begun  by  the  great-souled  man  and  woman  whose  name 
the  school  immortalizes  and  will  forever  honor. 
Through  many  a  year  of  beautiful  devotion  Dr.  and 
Mrs.  W.  E.  Ward  wrought  themselves  into  the  fine, 
high  character  of  the  young  woinen  and  girls  of  Nash- 
ville and  the  Southland  until  God  took  the  workers  and» 
blessed  with  eternal  life  their  work. 

Then  came  others  to  the  leadership,  others  who  did 
what  they  could,  and  left  the  work  in  1892  to  be  com- 
pleted by  those  who  have  proved  to  be  the  very  elect  of 
the  Lord  for  the  task  tremendous.  For  two  toilsome 
decades  of  sacrifice  and  service,  and  amid  difficulties  so 
numerous  and  so  great  that,  before  them,  the  less  true 
and  stout-hearted  would  have  quailed  and  quit.  Dr. 
and  Mrs.  John  Diell  Blanton  carried  on  and  out  and 
up  the  cause  of  Christian  culture  for  young  women, 
winning  the  confidence  of  everybody  the  while.  Pat- 
rons believed  in  them  because  of  the  womanhood  into 
which  girlhood  was  helped  by  them  to  grow ;  the  com- 
munity's faith  was  complete  because  the  more-than-acid 


test  of  twenty  years  had  discovered  no  sham  and  no 
lack  of  sincerity  and  integrity ;  and  educators  gave 
their  allegiance  because  the  President  and  his  wife 
made  no  extravagant  claim  which  the  school  could  not 
meet,  and  because  the  things  which  the  school  an- 
nounced that  it  could  do  were  done  so  well  that  higher 
institutions  of  learning  could  accept  it  with  no  fear  of 
having  to  undo  it  or  to  do  it  over. 

What  a  story,  fully  written,' would  be  the  forty-eight 
years  of  Ward  Seminary's  ministry,  and  of  the  share 
these  four  powerful  personalities  had  in  this  minis- 
try— Dr.  and  Mrs.  Ward,  whose  labors  have  ended  in 
the  Master's  "  Well  done,"  and  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Blanton, 
whose  contribution  to  the  four-square  education  of 
young  women,  we  all  pray,  may  be  only  just  fairly  be- 
gun !  Men  and  women  nowadays  are  being  valued  at 
their  true  worth  to  other  people,  and  not  by  any  arti- 
ficial commercial  tables  of  weights  and  measures.  What 
a  man  is  in  dependableness,  and  what  he  does  in  un- 
selfishness, and  what  he  prepares  and  inspires  others 
to  do  in  ways  that  are  good  and  lofty  and  great — this 
is  the  true  present-day  test  of  greatness ;  and  by  that 
test  we  are  dwelling  here  on  the  names  of  the  really 
great,  and  thousands  of  women  all  over  the  land  will 
confirm  this  judgment. 

But  there  are  others  of  whom  we  ara  thinking  with 


loving-kindness  as  we  approach  Wai'd's  first  "  moving 
day  "  for  more  than  a  generation — teachers  true  and 
self-forgetting,  who  threw  in  the  best  they  had  of  tal- 
ents and  toil  that  the  treasury  of  good  work  done  hei-e 
might  be  filled.  How  much  Ward  Seminary  and  her 
daughters  dear  owe  to  these  great  teachers,  some  of  the 
first  and  most  deserving  of  whom  have  remained !  It 
cannot  be  thought  invidious  if  the  name  of  Miss  Bell 
Jennings  is  inscribed  here  as  representative  of  all  the 
rest  of  the  best.  God  grant  a  cloudless  afternoon  and 
glorious  eventide  to  the  beautiful  day  throughout  the 
heat  and  burden  of  which  she  has  been  a  benediction  to 
us  all. 

"  Old  Ward  Seminary,"  giizzled  old  pile,  thou  hast 
well  fulfilled  thy  mission ;  yet  we  turn  away  from  thee 
with  a  sigh,  even  though  we  go  to  a  new  and  larger 
and  lovelier  home,  and  to  dwell  and  labor  with  friends 
as  faithful  as  the  old  ones  have  been,  and  to  enter  upon 
a  career  in  all  ways  greater  than  could  ever  have  been 
possible  in  our  -  now  commerce-crowded  and  urban- 
invaded  dwelling  place.  Sorrows  and  .ioys  alike  have 
sanctified  these  halls  and  rooms.  Success  and  failure 
have  striven  together  here,  and  success  has  won.  Out 
from  here  to  the  real  greatness  of  usefulness,  multitudes 
have  marched  into,  and  many  of  them  through,  the 
world's  larger  life  toward  eternity's  full  existence.    The 


daughters,  and  in  later  years  the  granddaughters,  of 
Ward's  earlier  students  have  come  to  the  same  scenes 
hallowed  in  the  memory  of  their  mothers.  It  is  not 
easy  to  abandon  the  old,  old  home.  It  would  not  be 
creditable  to  us  if  it  were  easy.  Those  of  us  who  have 
lived  a  while  beyond  the  impetuosity  and  quick  deci- 
sions of  youth  have  been  rather  pleased  than  otherwise 
with  the  disappointments  which  students  in  both 
schools  at  first  suffered  over  the  changes,  even  though 
every  change  plainly  presaged  improvement  and  uni- 
versal advantage.  Time  has  already  healed  these 
hurts,  and  we  shall  forget  in  our  growing  love  for  the 
better  new  our  natural  melancholy  over  surrendering 
the  cherished,  but  outgrown,  old  home. 

Buildings,  old  or  new,  are  but  the  temporal  bodies 
for  the  indwelling  of  the  spirit,  which  is  the  real  school. 
Into  Ward-Belmont  enters  to  live  forever  this  eternal 
personality  which  we  call  "Ward  Seminary;'^  and 
with  Ward  Seminary  into  Ward-Belmont  will  go  not 
only  many  of  the  people  who  helped  the  school  to  great- 
ness, but  also  the  faith  and  loyalty  of  evety  worthy 
daughter  and  of  every  genuine  friend  Ward  has  on 
earth;  for  on  September  25^  1913,  Ward-Belmont  will 
open  the  forty-ninth  year  of  Ward  Seminary  for  Young- 
Ladies.  Ira  Landeith.     ,

Music  is  one  of  the  fine  arts;  to  express 

it,  your  piano  must  be  a  work  of  art. 

Why  attempt  musical  expression  without  a  piano  that  responds  to  your  every  mood 
and  feeling? 

STARR  PIANOS  are  works  of  art,  conceived  in  an  atmosphere  of  art;  wrought  by 
artist  workmen — owned  and  loved  by  the  leading  musicians  of  the  world.
